Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Cast

A team of four anthropomorphic turtles, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael are trained in the art of ninjutsu by their anthropomorphic rat sensei, Splinter. Leo is the tactician and leader of the group who wears a blue mask and carries a pair of twin katanas. Mikey is a free-spirited prankster who wears an orange mask and wields a pair of nunchakus. Don is a scientist and technological genius who wears a purple mask and carries a bo staff. Last but not least, Raph is the team bad boy who wears a red mask and wields a pair of sai.

This group of cosplayers are part of the Turtle Power Entertainment who, according to Pedro Murillo, “work with many different charity organizations to help in any way we can” and “bring smiles to others”.

Now that is what cosplaying is really about. Not to criticize and compare, but to bring happiness and to inspire others. Kudos to you, my friend, and more Turtle Power! Thanks to Pedro for sending this in!

On a side note though, I always thought Mikey wore a yellow mask, not orange. Hehe…

Transformers: Bumblebee (Kre-O)

Bumblebee thinks he’s the coolest Kreon of them all, Autobots or Decepticons alike. Whenever he’s not punking the other Autobots, he likes cruising on the freeway at top speed. He also likes hanging out wherever there are lot of humans and loud music.

I found this adorable looking Bumblebee last 18th of May at the Transformers: Age of Extinction Event in Megamall. My nephew is a huge fan of this toy line, so we got to take a lot of photos of this cosplay. He also took advantage of the huge sale from Toy Kingdom too, and manage to get a ton of savings.

Was anyone else at the event?

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic: Ren Kouen

2chmod asked:

You have a certain standard for your blog. How come you don't post the sexier photos I send?

The main thing about this blog is that I want to have a website that features beautiful cosplays without the excessive exposure of one’s skin. While I agree that some anime series do have very accurate cosplays of sexy characters, I want my younger nephews and nieces to be able to go through this site without my older siblings killing me.

I do post the occasional bikini or almost-pantsu-shot though? I hope that’ll be enough for now.

Anyway, please post more of your questions in the comments of this entry! And also, please feel free to let me know who this cosplayer is portraying! Thanks to Sandy for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to Lance Ensing for letting me know this is Ren Kouen from Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic!

Fate/Unlimited Codes: Saber Alter 02

凍えそうな躯(からだ)と>
This frozen body and
一片(ひとひら)の想い
Flake of feeling
朽ち果てるその前に
Before they rot away
飛び越えていけ夜を
Leap past the night

誰かを当てにしても
Even though I depend on someone
求めるものじゃないのだから
There is nothing else I wish for
本当の自分はここにいるって
My true self is right here
目を閉じていないで
Don’t close your eyes

“Disillusion”
Lyrics and Translation by Anime Lyrics

Those beautiful dress patterns/details! I wouldn’t mind owning a dress like this and wearing it at a formal dinner, even if someone were to recognize it as Saber Alter’s dress! And I think it’s even made of velvet cloth, so it looks really expensive! Thanks to Sarah for sending this in!

Guilty Crown: Yuzuriha Inori 05

So, everything that makes me whole
今君に捧げよう
I will dedicate them all to you now
I’m Yours
ねえ こんなに笑えたこと
You know, never in my life
生まれて初めてだよ
Have I been able to smile so much
きっと私はね
I’m sure
この日の為に間違いだらけの
I’ve been walking on a path
道を歩いてきたんだ
Full of mistakes, all by myself
ずっと一人で
Just for this day

“My Dearest”
Lyrics and Translation by Anime Lyrics

That’s a rather breath-taking Inori, wouldn’t you agree? It always surprises me how cosplayers manage to wear amazing costumes like this!
Sorry I’ve been out, guys! I now have two manga series that I’m currently working on, plus my own webcomic “Crystal Shadows”, and one more “labor of love”! I’m surprised I haven’t had a panic attack yet, but I do hope I can get back to sleeping properly again soon! Thanks to Jennifer for sending this in!

Fairy Tail: Gildarts Clive

A laid-back, easy going individual, Gildarts Clive has a hilarious tendency of breaking down walls with his Crash instead of using the door, possibly because he pays very little attention to his surroundings. When fighting, he’s rather bad at holding back his strength, although he does fight in a certain way in order to prevent human casualties. Gildarts is said to have a great interest and utmost faith in the new generation of Fairy Tail’s Mages.

Cosplayer Elffi makes a rather dashing Gildarts! Even if I’m not too familiar with this series, I dare say that is one job very well done! Thanks to Cynthia for sending this in!

Crystal Shadows: Erin Kiraly and Jeremy Chan

When foreign exchange student Jeremy Chan first entered Crescent Academy, he was bullied by his peers because of his tall, lanky appearance and his Cantonese accent. However, that didn’t stop Erin Kiraly from befriending him, even though she was one of the most popular girls in school.

A few years later, they entered high school and it seems their roles have been completely reversed! Not only that, they act as if they barely know each other despite what first appeared to be a fruitful friendship! What could have happened between them that changed their lives completely?

This would be one of the reasons why Cosplay Holic was been idle lately… My dear friends, Eleniel Mist and Novanjon Ignacio Novo have agreed to cosplay Erin and Jeremy from my webcomic, “Crystal Shadows”. We did a photo shoot during GTMACCON 3 at Fisher Mall and got a ton of really amazing photos! I really loved how they turned out! And hopefully, you guys wouldn’t mind if I show them off here for a while!

It really pushed my imagination since I was the one planning the sets and taking the photos, but it was definitely a lot of fun! Please visit my site for the complete set and let me know what you think! You can also read Crystal Shadows at kurohiko.com for free!

I am squealing with joy while hyperventilating with excitement! I can’t help but think this is Kenshin’s and Soujiro’s reincarnation into modern times, but heck, 2015 can’t get here soon enough!

Ore no Imoto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai: Kosaka Kirino 03

Kosaka Kirino is a classic, tsundere character who appears to have an older brother complex. She frequently forces her brother Kyosuke to spend time with her, whether it’s by playing games or accompanying her out, but denies that she actually enjoys spending time with him. Kirino considered Kyosuke to be the perfect older brother, but she was disappointed in his change of personality after the incident with Sakurai Akimi.

I was confused at who this cosplayer was at first, but then I realized that her maid outfit is same with Kuroneko’s. Kirino always has two red pins in her hair, so that pretty much sealed the deal for me! Thanks to Allen for sending this in!

Rurouni Kenshin: The Great Kyoto Fire Arc Trailer

To be honest, I wasn’t all that impressed with how Shishio looked in this movie. However, the first trailer that came out only showed a few seconds of his profile.

With this official trailer, I have to say, I can’t wait for August 1 to arrive! Not only does Shishio look more menacing than ever, but Shinomori Aoshi also appears to be quite impressive! I gotta hand it to the people handling this live action movie. It really brings back a lot of fond memories for me. Thanks to Mika for sharing this with me!

Dragon Kid: Keiko Shoda

Keiko Shoda is the main protagonist of the series DRAGON KID. A happy and adventurous loving Dragon, who often times, lets her curiosity get the better of her. There are moments when she shows a bit of a tomboyish attitude and a childish temper. Despite that, she is a kind and loving girl who fights to protect the ones she loves. She is also known to have a voracious appetite, especially when it comes to desserts.

Like most Dragons, Keiko possesses super strength and durability as well as flight. She also seems to have a firm knowledge of martial arts. At the beginning of the series, it is revealed she lost her powers when she was a baby, but as the story progress, her powers slowly start to manifest itself in a form of an energy blast. She is the only Golden Dragon in the entire Dragon Race.

Shingeki no Kyojin: Mikasa Ackermann 05

Wait, are the scouting legions so desperate that their willing to train babies now?!

Kidding aside, what in the world, that’s the most adorable Mikasa I’ve ever come across! I’m sure the spectators were all delighted, and she doesn’t seem to mind as long as she gets to drink her milk.

I can’t stop staring at this photo. Does anyone have another angle of this kawaii cosplayer? She probably has a very cute face. Thanks to Rosette for sending this in!
